Heroine Magazine Bling Rings 2026

About

This striking portrait from the Bling Rings project for Heroine Magazine features model Agel Akol captured in a close crop against a neutral backdrop. Photographed by Anna Daki with fashion direction by Hilda Sandström, the subject wears minimalist wire-rim glasses and a prominent, sculptural statement ring featuring a large amber-toned stone flanked by silver leaf or insect motifs. She is draped in a black strapless garment with a matching hood framing her face, creating a dramatic, sculptural silhouette. The lighting is soft and directional, highlighting skin texture and casting subtle shadows around her hand and cheek. Hair styling by Andrea Idini and makeup by Tiziana Raimondo complete the clean, high-fashion aesthetic.
